Active Directory - Windows login only works desktop shortcut 

Hi there,

We have looked at various posts regarding common issues for the AD module, which none have covered our login issue. The problem we have is we have an intranet site set up for one of our customers that authorizes staff using their windows credentials. For example the following url automatically signs members of staff into their company intranet site when their pc is loaded (domain name taken out for security reasons):

http://companyintranetdomainname/DesktopModules/AuthenticationServices/ActiveDirectory/WindowsSignin.aspx

As mentioned, the above url shortcut verifies users on their windows login details and allows staff to access their intranet site. But if a user was to try and login (example purposes) or to access the intranet site over the internet, then their windows login details will not work. We know it is not an IIS issue because the intranet site has been set up to authorize a user on their windows login details before being allowed access to the intranet site from which they can then login. The url which they are taken to after the initial staff verification by IIS is:

http://companyintranetdomainname/Default.aspx?tabid=36&ctl=Login&returnurl=%2fDefault.aspx

When a user tries to login they recieve the normal message:

"Login Failed, remember that Passwords are case sensitive"

Normal DNN users accounts can login but with the intranet site having windows login details as the preferred logins due to having permission based modules for restricted staff access, this is obviously not an option. We have tried various tests and are wondering if it is a module issue? If anyone has experienced this before then we would be very grateful for a response.

I hope I have explained our situation clearly, if not then please ask relevant questions.

Thanks for your help in advance!


Craig

Re: Active Directory - Windows login only works desktop shortcut 

Thanks for posting this here instead of in the blogs Craig.

A couple of things:

  1. When they try to manually login, are they picking Windows Signin or trying to login using the DNN Standard login.
  2. If they're using the Windows SIgnin option are they entering their username as Domain\Username
  3. How long are your passwords required to be? By default DNN expects 7 characters (this can be changed) and it only affects AD users when they try to manually login.
